Clean – Masochist (Video)

This is our first time featuring the artist, Clean.   And he hits us hard with a soulful tale of man glutting for punishment by staying in and returning to a hurtful relationship.  Sometimes trying to do the right thing just makes the suffering more intense.  The instrumentation is on point and appropriate as Clean weaves the feelings and emotions of a man being trapped.   I would think most of us have been there at one time or another.

Not sure if this is part of a larger project but I will stay tuned.

Single You Out: Dirt Platoon – Admire (prod. by DJ Low Cut)

This is the third single from Dirt Platoon’s latest album, Bare Face Robbery.   This has been a ‘go-to’ album for me since it came out.  I have at least bumped it ten times since it dropped, and that almost never happens in this day and age.    Dirt Platoon and DJ Low Cut put a project together that’s simply laced with banger after banger.   You never get any weak shit from these guys.  They drop it strong and heavy.

If you are feeling this cut, be sure to check that album.

Worth Revisiting: Cyne – Elephant Rome (2008)

a2110891761_10

In the vain of putting you onto (or reminding you) of dope music from a while back I put forth Cyne’s song, Elephant Rome, from their album, Pretty Dark Things which was released about seven years ago in 2008.

Cyne is an incredibly dope group who has over ten years of music that hip hop afcionados can sift through.   It’s an impressive display of musical artistry and lyrical dexterity.  There’s also something very distinctive in the quality of music that the group puts out.   Certainly lots to love, as I am sure you will enjoy this track!

Oddisee – Counter-Clockwise (Video)

There’s always a lot of soul that goes into Oddisee’s music, but there’s almost an extra dose exhibited here.   There’s also a lot going on here musically.  A xylophone, drums, and varying background vocals set the stage for his conversational style as he shares a moment with his listeners.

The Good Fight is available on May 5th.  You know it’s going to be good.

SKAM2? – LOT3R (Video)

I am a big fan of Skam2? and was really excited to hear that he was coming out with some new music.  LOT3R (Lord of the 3 Rings) gives listeners (and viewers) insight into his craft as an artist, and believe me his imagery is sick.  He has designed countless of examples of cover art, but people sleep on his abilities as an emcee, and that’s a shame.  He is able to seamlessly port his ability as a visual artist into that of a wordsmith.  Special indeed.

Make sure you stay aware for April 15th, when he drops his latest project, Flying Monkey Murder Cirkus.
